I think I'm going to start going to church.

My mind today will be 9/11 and Chris Colfer. :| Maybe some SBL or something.



My mind is not available for posting right now



My brother's birthday is a little less than a month and two weeks away! I'm excited for him because he's going to get both of the gifts that he wanted. I prepaid in full for a Flame Red 3DS and bought a new copy of Starfox 64 3D the day I picked it up at GameStop. Yes, I get my games at GameStop. No, it's not because I'm a nub, they just happen to have a store within walking distance of my apartment that I live at with my mom. No, I am not a scrub, I know I'm not the tits, and no, I am not ashamed to say that I live with my mom because if I didn't need her support, and she didn't have mine, she'd probably have killed herself by now.


Anyway, I'm brimming with anticipation for the moment my brother unwraps his presents. I'm so excited that I'm worried that I'll ruin the secret. Luckily, my brother isn't on these forums as he lacks internet access at his group home at the moment.


Hey, I just had a thought, why do people on these forums knock GameStop anyway? Is it because they give in-store credit for used games in amounts disproportionate to the price they sell used games for? They have to turn a profit somehow! Is it because they sell used games and don't share the profits with the publishers? Somebody else already bought the game, so why should they have to? Is it because of the gaming magazine that they own, Game Informer? Why do people judge that without reading it? Or is it because taking pot shots at that store is just the cool thing to do? If that's the case, why not vent your spleen at a store that's more deserving of your frustration? Best Buy comes to mind, actually.


As to my book, I haven't been able to get back to it because of my sleep schedule. I would be typing away at it right now, but it's on my mom's computer and I think that she's winding herself down in order to go to sleep for the night, and as mom's computer is in her bedroom I would be unwise to disturb her for this purpose.


That's what's on my mind right now. I'm off to take my evening medicines. I'll be back shortly after!

There is nothing better in the world than reaching the summit of a mountain. Up so high one can question if all this material bullshit really matters. I cannot wait until next weekend and the world in the sky is mine again.

Star Wars comes out on Blu Ray tomorrow ($70-$80)
Sony 3D headset comes out next month. ($800!)

I also want Batman (360), Saints Row the Third (360) Uncharted 3 (PS3), MGS HD Collection (PS3), Mario Kart 7 (3DS), Super Mario 3D Land (3DS), and Dance Central 2 (360 Kinect). Plus, my GF's B-Day is in November and my kid wants a 3DS and games of her own for Christmas.

This holiday season is going to be expensive.........

The job hunt continues... and is picking up steam. I've applied to a few positions at EA and some at Ubisoft... I also checked out the Silicon Knights website but there isn't much I'm interested in in terms of positions. I've also applied to some non-gaming companies.

I've been trying to keep my mind off of things but it's been a struggle. I don't feel like gaming much lately as I don't feel I deserve the recreation due to lack of work... and I don't want to do any other hobbies either for the same reasons. I haven't worked out in a month, I can't sleep more than 5 hours a night, and my appetite is waning. Squirtle is also feeling the effects of this. He has retreated into his shell and won't eat any rare candy.


Sometimes, you have to settle for a job you don't want while you search for the job that you do want.  Don't lower your expectations or your standards, of course.  Just do something productive (and profitable) with your down time. 

 

Thinking about a sad Squirtle is pretty depressing.  Hope you guys hear something soon.



im thinking uncharted 3 will win game of the year. and im ready for assassins creed, batman, rage, skyrim, twisted metal & bioshock ! currently playing GoW Origins Collection



Closing in on my application to rectify cosmic wrongs that were thrust upon me (e.g., my application to Temple University Tokyo Campus). Would already be done if the school's disciplinary office weren't so damn slow (they need to release your record, even for people with only a one-time no-effect warning like me, and they take their sweet time)



Monster Hunter: pissing me off since 2010.

Still got to find a job, I've applied to a few places, and even asked some that didn't have any wanted poster (like Game and Gamestation)... NOTHING. I went to the pubs nearby, NOTHING. =__=

I guess at least I'm trying, which is hard for someone with social phobia and my mother in law criticises me. Doesn't she see how hard it is? >_>

Sometimes I wish we lived in Canada. My family understands my efforts and they really love him too. I feel really lonely sometimes.
